Were utensils used? I mean, did you chop stuff up? If so, it totally counts.
Whoa. Good myth.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oo, that's a good question, Vortex. Did I use any utensils? Oh yeah, I did! I made guacamole, so there's a knife and a spoon right there. And another spoon for stirring the beans.

Emmett protecting his lemon tree is great.
I made meatloaf today. Didn't chop anything as it was one of my semi-prepared dinners in the freezer, but I did get all innovative and baked it in a muffin tin instead of a loaf pan, and "frosted" the results with mashed potatoes.

Ugh. We had a slug.

Slug be gone!

Our wings are not tired.
I'm roasting mushrooms, eggplant, and garlic for a veggie lasagna that I'm taking to my mom's this weekend. Third layer will be frozen spinach sauteed with the garlic that I roasted tonight as well. I'll make and bake them on Saturday and just reheat them on Sunday.
Oh that sounds terrific.
I also love the image of Emmett and his lemon tree!

I also love the image of Emmett and his lemon tree!
Mostly I just look forward to the day when I get bags of lemons from both javachik and Emmett.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm sorry about the job, msbelle. Clearly they are poopyheads not to recognize their desperate need of your talents. The job for you will turn up.
Aw, Emmett protecting his tree is a wonderful image.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Tonight I made bean burritos for dinner. I'm pretty sure that counts as preparing dinner, but it doesn't actually rise to the level of cooking.
I totally hear you -- I think of most of what I do as "making food," not cooking, although people who Don't Cook would disagree.

Jebus. Walker doubles down:
Education leaders in Wisconsin said Wednesday that the forthcoming two-year state budget Gov. Scott Walker will propose next week will lead to cuts that could spell the end of Milwaukee Public Schools as we know it and changes University of Wisconsin leaders say could split the flagship Madison campus off the university system.
He's also made noise about refusing Federal Title 1 funds, which are targeted specifically at programs for low-income children. What the everloving fuck.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When I Don't Cook, I Don't Cook with flair and verve and a lot of real Not Cooking.
When I do cook, there are dishes. Given how long I'd been going between empties of the dishwasher, I'm revisiting my decision.
